Did anyone make it to 100 miles in March? I know Pickles and her owner made it further than Ace and I. If you made it 100 miles or close to 100, let me know. If you blog about it, I will link to your site. Ace and I walked a total of 60 miles [...]

I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. I believe the average adult can handle and care for a dog properly. Even if it’s their first dog, most people can put two and two together and figure out how to train and exercise a dog. If not, they can pick up a book [...]

We just had to go for a walk across the Main Avenue bridge connecting Fargo, N.D., and Moorhead, Minn. this morning. And we weren’t the only idiots out taking photos of the flood in the sunny weather. Just another walk in the – well, you can’t see Woodlawn Park anymore. Ace probably would’ve jumped in [...]

Our little foster dog went to her trial home today. It’s a good thing someone wanted to adopt her right away because we were starting to get attached to Sammi and wanted to keep her! Even the cats were getting used to her. Ace is walking around with his toys in his mouth happy to [...]

It is so much fun living with a puppy despite all the trouble. I look at this little foster pup named Sammi and I can’t be mad at her no matter what she does. My 3-year-old lab mix Ace actually seems mature for once, although he is enjoying all the extra toys around the house, [...]

Our foster dog is here. Sammi is about the cutest dog I’ve ever seen. I don’t know exactly what she is mixed with, but I am guessing mostly American pit bull terrier with some smaller terrier like a Jack Russell. She seems to be all terrier to me anyway! Basically she is a tiny pitbull. [...]

I’d forgotten how nice it is to run with my own dog. During this challenge, Ace and I walked each mile until yesterday. I run other people’s dogs all the time through my dog running business and usually end up walking Ace to give myself a break. But I realized if I wanted to add [...]
